Shaw's 'punishment' a lesson for all of us; or is it?

Peter Shaw apparently has done something wrong. His “punishment” to to be suspended with pay since Nov. 8. Finally he was assigned work on Jan 2. He still hasn’t reported to his new assignment ... still receiving his pay. I don’t call this punishment, I call it a paid vacation. Despite all this, the reasons remain “undisclosed.”

Mr. Shaw’s salary is $93,744. Who do they think pays this exorbitant salary? We, the residents do and we deserve a full explanation.

Did you ever hear of a job paying over $93,000, for leading just 25 students? If the contractual obligations require this exorbitant payment (to a man who refuses to report to work, and has been paid for every day he has been under “punishment”) there should be an investigation into the individuals that agreed to such a contract. They should be the next to be “punished” or have they already set up their own golden parachutes?
